Have you all seen this “behind the scenes” video coverage of Derek Hough, Allison Holker, and company rehearsing for the Emmys last week? If not, be sure to take it in!! It’s truly amazing watching Derek and the other choreographers work to put on the show stopping performance that they did!!

Also, check out Amber as she sings the National Anthem at a Dodgers Game last night. Girl can belt it and then some!

For lots more Derek Hough coverage from this past week which includes updates with Amber Riley as well, be sure to head to Pure Derek Hough.

I'm a fashion and music fan....and I have always loved dancing too of any kind. Dancing With The Stars seems to have this way of bringing all of those things together. One of my favorite dancing quotes at the moment: "No matter what, nobody can take away the dance you've already had...." ~Gleb Savchenko .

I love Amber’s voice & her inflections…chills. ‘Course also loving her dancing. She’s got moves! Amber is very real, down to earth & relatable…love that about her. Eagerly anticipating what Derek & Amber have in store w/their Charleston!

When some celebrities sing the National Anthem they put in all kinds of runs and extra notes that completely obscure the melody of the song. I really loved Amber’s rendition because she used her beautiful voice to full advantage singing the straight melody with only a few well- placed ornamentations at the end. It was a stunning, wonderful performance. She is a really legitimately good singer. I also love her personality and charisma and am looking forward to her Charleston tomorrow. You rock Amber!!

Great job by Amber. “The Star-Spangled Banner” is hard to sing well, especially a cappella.

I’m with DW. Too many celebs try to add their signature style when performing it. That bugs me. It’s the National Anthem not some random tune. Amber showed proper respect by singing it as it was written.
